The use of Straight Vegetable Oil, or SVO, as an engine fuel is not a new concept. The inventor and pioneer of the diesel engine, Rudolph Diesel, ingeniously designed and built the first diesel engine fueled by readily available and renewable 'peanut oil'. The use of SVO to fuel Diesel's engine began in 1898 and continued into the mid 1920's until 'Big Business' petroleum oil companies forced design changes to the Diesel engine to enable the non-renewable and now very costly petroleum fuel products to be used.



Besides the inherent benefits of a renewable fuel, using VEG-oil significantly reduces engine exhaust particulate emissions over using petroleum-based diesel fuels. Burning VEG-oil does not create new carbon pollution because the CO2 produced was taken out of the air by the plants from which the oil is made of. VEG-oil as a fuel does not contribute to 'Acid Rain', as it is sulfur free! VEG-oil is also 'non-toxic' and if spilled is quickly 'bio-degradable' back to the earth in which it was grown.

Also, VEG-oil is inherently a much more effective lubricating fuel than petro-diesel... Proof of this is evident by listening to the difference in engine noise when running on either petro-diesel, or VEG-oil. Initially the engine is usually started on petro-diesel until the SVO is heated to optimum burn rate temperature by a VEG-oil conversion system. Once the fuel selector switch from petro-diesel to SVO is activated and the veg-oil is powering the engine there is a very noticeable quieting of engine noise, therein proving that engine friction and wear is significantly reduced.



Justifiably we now design and install our own aftermarket modification products & systems to allow the almighty Diesel engine to be fueled by VEG-oil again and to perform as it was originally intended by Rudolph Diesel himself, a very wise man in many aspects.

Now more than ever it is time to start thinking seriously about conserving natural resources and looking towards more cost effective and sustainable fuels. Our daily lives are dependent on it.

If you have a diesel powered engine system, whether it be in your car, truck, boat, tractor, heavy duty equipment, or an electric power generator, you can fuel it practically for FREE by 'recycling' waste vegetable oil that restaurants dispose of. BIG or small, you can convert it ALL. We are developing systems that are specifically designed to enable the use of this waste vegetable oil as an alternative fuel. The initial investment will pay off within months, and for years following you will help save the environment as you save money. *(Sorry Ga$ Guzzlers...Gasoline engines cannot be converted... Sell while you still can and GO DIESEL)

Please look into our products as they become available on this site. Thank you! -VEGPOWER
